[HOPPER ELDRIDGE]

When you're out riding and wave at all bikes and 9 out of 10 Hardley riders are either to afraid to turn loose of the handle bar to wave back or think they're too good to condescend to a return wave to a non Hardley rider...that is what I call pathetic.
   
  Rode over to a British bike club reunion yesterday and there were loads of Hardleys and clones on the road, say thirty or better. Only two returned the wave! By the time I got to the party, I was pissed at the "biker comraderie" that was displayed on the road. Too many times I've overheard the astute obsevation by some of the Hardley crowd about my "Jap crap" and  "rice burner". Of course I always tell 'em that I was amazed that Italy was in Japan not some where over in Europe.
